Posted | Discussion |
Nov. 9 SSUSA Staff 3505 posts | Here are the REVISED TENTATIVE Field Assignments for the 2014 Winter World Championships in Phoenix ... Changes were required as the actual game allocations were slotted into the various facilities by day ... The principal items we addressed were ... • The unexpected growth in the tournament attendance, up from 150 last year to 176 this year ... The most significant growth was in the 40-Masters (Men increased from 9 to 14 and Women increased from 11 to 17) and the Men's 50's through 60's, up from 73 to 86 teams ... This is likely the last year the 40-Masters division will be offered in a two-day format because of the fields pressure the games burden for them has placed on the weekend for the rest of the divisions ... Look for a 2½ or 3 day format in 2015 for the 40-Masters ... • The travel implications on Friday for some divisions that were playing at multiple facilities ... Specifically, the 50-AAA Division will play early at BLD on Friday, and will commence bracket there in the afternoon except for four teams, who will move to Papago ... In the 55-AAA, bracket games will be assigned to both Desert West and Cesar Chavez for the 55-AAA on Friday ... Specific schedules will be forthcoming shortly, but we wanted to get this information out as soon as it was determined ... Good luck to all! ...
